‘“Well, it is a concern. I don’t take those things lightly. We’ve got to look at everything,” he said. “From what we’re doing schematically, personnel. We’ve got to make sure we’ve got some things buttoned up on that end, and that we continue to affect the quarterback. Quarterbacks drive this league, and we have to do a good job of affecting quarterbacks.”’

‘Picked up to the Bills’ broadcast team toward the end of Buffalo’s close call against the Bucs. They really get their money’s worth out of Steven Hauschka: He’s Hausch-money … The Bills are playin’ with Hausch-money … It’s the game-winner from Hausch-money. Tyrod Taylor to Nick O’Leary made the Bucs’ defense look like … wait for it … a Hausch of cards. That was a heckuva effort from Buffalo’s full-Hausch backfield, with LeSean McCoy, Mike Tolbert and Taylor. Newly signed receiver Deonte Thompson proved to be quite the rental … Hausch … OK, I’m done.’

‘Specialist Benjamin Stryker knew he wanted to join the military since eighth grade. Though he came from a long line of military ties – his parents met while serving – it was the film “Black Hawk Down” that sealed his decision.’

‘A regular attendee at Bills Training Camp and a dear friend to many at One Bills Drive, Frost leaves an impression on everyone that he meets. Despite being diagnosed with a rare disease called Fanconi anemia, Frost continues to stay optimistic. Fun-loving and charismatic, Frost’s special day will long be remembered.’

‘The play call brings Taiwan Jones across the formation pre-snap from right to left. As the ball is snapped, Tyrod Taylor tosses a shovel pass to the passing Jones as he heads out toward the left flank.’

‘Throughout Sunday’s games Thompson was the most productive wide receiver in the league based on highest yards per route run. The top-five were: Thompson (7.64), Ted Ginn Jr. (4.86), Allen Hurns (4.21), Tyreek Hill (4.17), and Amari Cooper (4.04). Thompson’s first game in Buffalo since 2014 was encouraging and Pro Football Focus provided an in-depth analysis of his performance.’

‘McRae (5-10, 185) was just waived by the Baltimore Ravens where he appeared in the first five games of his NFL career this season, mainly on special teams.’

‘“Early signs are positive,” he said. “The important thing is anyone who is hurt that they maximize those treatment opportunities so they can come back as quickly as they can. Our players have been phenomenal with taking care of things off the field. That’s been one of the keys to our success.”’

‘His next field goal for the record books came in the fourth quarter. It was a 52-yard kick. Hauschka has proven lethal from long distance. He has now converted 12 straight field goals from 50-plus yards, tying an NFL record. The 10-year veteran joins Blair Walsh, Robbie Gould, Justin Tucker, and Matt Prater as the only kickers in league history to make 12 straight from that distance.’

‘On the ensuing possession, Tre’Davious White force a fumble and recovered it at the Tampa 33-yard line. Buffalo then ran clock before bringing on Stephen Hauschka for a game-winning field goal from 30 yards away for a dramatic 30-27 victory.’

‘We changed the scheme up a little bit. I had more one-on-one opportunities and I felt I ran solid, too. I mean I know at the end it was kind of slow running the clock out, but overall I thought I ran the ball well. Maybe a play or two, I wish I could’ve had a difference as the outcome. But overall, we ran the ball solid. Tyrod [Taylor] really just took over today, throwing it and running it.’

‘“It felt good for sure,” said McCoy. “I was so happy to get in there, and the guys up front were really happy for me to get in there. It’s been a while. I’m used to being in the end zone so it felt good. I really enjoyed that second one to get it after that fumble.”’

‘“For the most part, if I’m out there catching balls I feel like I can go out there and play,” said Matthews this week. “So I want to be able to go out there and run and get right back into it with my guys.”’

‘White’s statistics so far this season speak for themselves. His athletic ability isn’t a question, but he’s also shown he has the mental aspect of the game down. His maturity at 22-years-old is impressive and it’s evident with how he carries himself. For a guy who’s on pace for Defensive Rookie of the Year, he vows to be better. It will be a luxury to see White develop as he’s already exceeding expectations according to Farrar.’

‘This isn’t a great matchup for the Buccaneers with Jameis Winston injured. The Bills don’t have the most potent of offenses, but the Tampa defense isn’t exactly terrific. If Winston cannot go or is less than 100 percent, the Buccaneers will struggle against a defense that forces you to execute flawlessly. The Bills offense should be able to produce enough points against that Bucs defense to win.’
